Not Go on Record as to the
Proper Jail Site.
AT the meeting of the chamber of COM
merce yesterday the resignation of
Hon. Edmund Rice as director was
not accepted, but he was given a leave
of absence while congress is in session.
a communication from the Minneapolis
chamber of commend, asking the as
SiStance of ST. Paul in prevailing on
congress TO so legiSlate as to prevent
large accumulationS of money in the
treasury, as referred to the mercantile
committee. After some other minor
matters were disposed of. the matter of
the jail site was taken up, when Dr.Day
spoke strongly against locating the Jail
Oh the court house square. He declared
it would shut out the light from
several of the important rooms,
interfere with the heating plant, be i'll
the way when it became necessary to
extend the court house up TO Fifth street,
and be continuous nuisance as long as
it was there. Secretary Hart, of the
Board of Corrections and Charities,
stated some conclusions that he had
reached. urged that the Jail be placed
where there was good deal of ventila-
ton and somewhere else than on the
square with the court house. DR.. Day
offered resolution that the sense of
the chamber was that the Jail should
not be located OH the square. This was
amended by Mr.. Stevens to the end
that the whole subject be laid over till
next Monday, and that the recorder be
instructed to notify the court house
commissioners, the committee of the
county commissioners, the committee of
the common council. and the committt e
heretofore appointed by the chamber on
the subject, to be present at that time.

sat in his compartment at the Merchants

this money is in circulation now in the
shape of checks which have not been
presented to me for redemption. Until
some arrangements can be made be-

stockholders of our bank will receive,

cents on the dollar. | would like to say
100 cents, but l do not take such rosy
view of the situation as Mr.. Mann does,
and hence do not believe that his figures
even will be reached when we wind up
finally. There is great deal of out
standing business that will have to be
disposed of pending such disposition,
and the stockholders meet weekly to
discuss matters and see how they
stand. y

Escape Of Prisoners.

Six colored prisoners broke out Of the
county Jail here last night and escaped.
The names CT the fugitives are as follows ];
Dunk Jones, committed for grand lar
ceny; Jake Finlay, horse stealing; Joe
Harris, one of the Air Line railroad rob.
bers !: John Adams and Adolphus
Adam, the two counterfciters from Ahbe'
vile, and VIM. Adams, convicted at the
last term of the United States Court tor
retailing liquor without a license, and
sentenced to six months in the county
Jail. Early this morning William
Adams returned to the Jail and said that
he had been forced to 60 out with the
fngitives; that they told him if he did
not go they would kill him. He says
that they broke out between eleven and
twelve o'clock last night, and that he
went with some of them as far as the Air
Line railroad depot and then left them
and returned to the Jail and waited until
daylight to be let in.
The prisoners were all confined in the
same room on the second floor, and
escaped! By cutting out the mortar
between tlle rocks of which the wall is
built, the only instrument they bad being
the handle of an iron kettle, and, after
removing the rocks, they quietly stepped
out and descended to the ground on a
ladder that had been left standing

The. Kew Cotton. Planter.

South Carolina, which has given to the
world Mason's cotton picker, has now
followed up that invention by another
equally as great. The new machine is
thus spoken of in the Sumter CORES.
pondence of the Charleston Meas and
Courier:
8: As public test Of the cotton chopper
invented by Mr.. J. B. Ammons, of
Kershaw, was had at Wedge6eld on last
Saturday, on the farm of Mr.. ]. 81.
2Aycock, and was in every particular sat
isfactory. Mr.. Ammon's machine is of
very simple construction and can be
operated with ease by one hand. 1t is
built somewhat on the principle of a
sulky plow, with adjustable hoes, so that
cotton in rows of any width can be
chopped out. Mr.. Ammons has been
working at this invention for about eleven
wears, and in spite of repeated draw.
backs has at last brought it to its present
state of perfection. One hand can now
with ease chop out thirty acres of cotton
per day. Public tests with very satisfac.
tory results have been made in the
counties of Marion, Kershaw, Richland,
Marlboro, Chesterfield and Sumter.
: The importance of this invention can
scarcely be imagined at the outset. The
expenses of raising cotton under q sys.
tenn of free labor, with all the risk OF
zsbortness of hands and the unreliability
of the negro race, has made it question
whether it could much longer be kept up.
This machine, however, will save the
labor Of twenty-five men, thus rendering
sc impossible for any farmer to fall vic.
tim to the grass. Together with Mason's
cotton picker, it opens up immense
probabilities for the future.
